Rosencrantz & Guildenstern are Dead is a fantastically witty, tragicomic exploration of Shakespeare’s Hamlet from the perspective of Hamlet’s childhood friends: a pair of characters who exist only to deliver a letter, and then lose their heads.
Audiences of all ages will enjoy the twists and turns of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern’s journey to discover the cause of Hamlet’s madness and their own purpose in the world.
